Thank you so much.

Hi,

I see this is for Doc, but I'll reply anyway . The Tiptronic equipped Cars suffer fewer RMS Failures because the Torque Convertor (essentially a Viscous Coupling) reduces the amount of stress placed on the Flywheel/Crankshaft - there's less movement around it's designed Center-of-Rotation resulting in less wear to the Seal. Hope this helps...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
